MUSIC FROM THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

The aboriginal name of the Dominican Republic was Quisqueya, which means ‘mother of the earth. When Columbus discovered the island in 1492 he re-named it 'Espanola'.

Work songs, feast celebrations, popular music, and religious music including Palos are documented here.
